Petra's instincts

"Did I?" He chuckled and shook his head, "You see, whenever I tell you how grateful I am to see us reconciled again, you'll never understand."

"Is surely counts. My instincts told me that too."

Adjusting his glasses, he raised his brows before asking, "Is our son in? I saw so many cars parked in the garage, I have no clue which one he mostly uses for working weeks."

Looking around if there's anyone spying, Petra drew closer and whispered, "Seb has this habit of changing cars. The same car he uses yesterday won't be the same as today. Until next week coming before he uses it."

Raising his brows, Grayson slowly nodded, "So, he uses several cars for just one week?" When he poked one finger, Petra nodded. Helplessly shaking his head, he sighed, "Gangster."

"Hmm, just like you." She pouted her lips before remarking.

"Come on sweetheart, how can you say that? When we were still married and living together back then, I barely change one car per week."

"That's because you didn't wanted to." Tucking a strand behind, she smiled, "Sebastian is a lot different. The only thing that's similar between you two is the temper and appearance. Gosh, that young man battles like a warrior."

Grayson was about to say something but purse his lips after seeing the two people walking down the stairs. The guard who was standing afar off quickly rushed to take his briefcase from him when he saw his master approaching.

When Petra followed his gaze, she instantly stood up with him. Forcing a smile which later didn't seem perfect in anyone's eyes. "Ah, Seb, Jin, you two are awake." She shakily greeted out of anxiety that her son might do something crazy soon.

"Good Morning Aunt, Hi Mr Flynn." Jin-joo happily greeted before turning towards her husband who was now having a deadly expression.

When she try to take his hand in hers, she realized that his palm were cold and already fisted. She could feel his muscles and veins clenched out. Jin-joo gulped down after setting her eyes in his narrow bloodshot eyes. The aura around him changes instantly like a mad man ready to unleash his beast.

Slowly patting his chest to calm him down, she whispered while trying hard to force a smile which turns out weak. "Okay that's it for now, be the perfect darling you've always been. No bad day today."

No bad day today? Heh, he doesn't think so. Infact the bad day thing has just resumed as his eyes never flee from his father's.

Knowing that his fists were already shivering, Jin-joo widened her eyes and quickly held his wrists to suppress the approaching beast which was about to unleash.

"No, shh, calm down, be a good baby, okay? I beg of you don't, please don't do anything stupid please honey, listen to me." She pleaded in a very low tone with tears rolling down her cheeks. Without wasting any time, she hugged him tight to herself. This is one issue she has been trying to sort out between father and son but yet, he keeps increasing in anger whenever he sets his eyes on him.

The furious flood of burning furnace containing anger which was building inside of him sudden divested and he returned the hug before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

When he finally opened his eyes after some time, he rebuke sparing a glare at him. Patting his wife's head which was resting on his chest, he asked with a cold voice, "What are you doing here?"

Grayson still traumatize couldn't speak for himself let alone Petra who was almost losing her balance beside him.

Looking up at him, Jin-joo defended, "I asked him to come over. He is here to see me and nothing else. I know how mad you are with him but please allow him to mingle with me."

When he let out a sinister chuckle and look away, she quickly added, "I've never asked for something as serious as this, Sebastian."

Keeping quiet for a very long time, he stroked his hands through his face and sigh before turning towards her, "Friendship, isn't that what you want?"

She nodded vigorously, "Yes honey."

Narrowing his eyes at his father, "A ratchet womanizer like you has only few inches to take close to my wife, because I don't want to turn her request down. I respect her and I value her more than a piece of cabbage trash like you."

Seeing the dismayed expression on her ex's face even as he lowered his head, Petra mouthed 'Sebastian'

Without waiting for anyone's response, Sebastian lowered himself and kissed the top of her head after planting a peck on her lips.

Kissing her bellybutton, he gaze into her eyes, "Eat something, don't wait for me. I love you."

Before Jin-joo could reply to his words, he had already left the mansion.

Taking a deep breath, she wiped her face and turned around. Only to find two people standing downcasted. Jin-joo approached them.

Hugging Grayson, she cupped her cheeks, "Am so sorry, please forgive him."

Taking his glasses off, he patted her back, "I'm supposed to be the one apologizing for making your morning tamed."

"You don't have to apologize, father in-law. He is still young, probably too immature enough." Tears broke out of her eyes while she spoke.

"Oh God, when is he ever going to make peace with his father?" Petra sighed before sitting on the couch. "These kids are making me feel like I brought them into this world out of wedlock."

Pulling away, "No aunt, don't say that." Jin-joo sat next to her. Placing her arm across her shoulders, "You are one of the best moms I could count on."

"They don't have issues with me but their father."

Keeping quiet for some time, Jin-joo suggested, "Do you mind if I take us out for a drink?" When silence greeted her, she pointed at herself with a grin, "It's my treat."
